I work for the federal government and had a coworker get incredulous I over the phone because she didn’t believe Georgia was a country. She eventually quit before she was fired but people get real ignorant when it comes to things outside of their immediate sphere.
I still remember when Russia invades Georgia was a headline and how confused Americans where.
No because VPNs route your traffic through an encrypted tunnel. But PiHole can filter traffic on any device on your network regardless of whether or not you can install a plugin.
It does not. Domain based blocking does not work with youtube.
Your link event says it:
Some ads may […] be served through the same domain as the website, making them harder to block without blocking the website itself.
There is no point in using a proxy for this, because of https it won’t be able to block more than with DNS blocking. Maybe a tiny bit more if you set up mitm but that’s really not worth it.
Nope. Youtube ads are served from the same domains as the videos so there is nothing you can to to block them via DNS. Your best bet is just installing Ublock for them. Now a days an ad blocker is a security necessity anyways.
Installing uBlock is so quick, all you need is 30 seconds of their consent to lean over their shoulder and install it. The whole process can be faster than the actual ad break, in some cases.
I actually really like the unified remote app. It lets you use your phone as a remote for any computer on the same network. I think the premium version just lets you link more computers otherwise the free version is just as good.
Sorry I don’t blanket hate an entire profession because of the terrible few. I apologize for being able to criticize an institution and demand recourse, without wishing death and pain on all that are apart of it. This place and reddit have no idea the entire point of ACAB. It’s just a circlejerk at this point.
Yes. This is actually how humans work. We are not only social animals, but eusocial - similar to bees and ants. We are unique among primates in that regard, and one of only a few species of mammals that gets that designation (the other two being mole rats).
Not only were they a superpredator that preyed on apex predators, not only were they present in great numbers, but terrifyingly-enough, humans also worked together.
There’s a movie with Sam Neil about this story. We had to watch it in high school, before the Seinfeld episode came out, and we all just about died with the mom yelling about the dingo eating her baby. it wasn’t supposed to be funny but it absolutely was.
Yeah, all the other “countries” use the term “state” when referring to them in English. The US is the only place that has a ‘federal’ level ‘above’ states. If you’re on Lemmy, you should have some idea of what federation means. This should all put in perspective what the original idea of the United States was and how much control each level was intended to have.
This also makes it all the more hilarious and stupid how Texans wanna call themselves a country. They don’t even know the words they’re using.
